The 25-year-old Ferrell, who averaged 10.2 points and 2.5 assists in 27.8 minutes per game for the Mavs last season, balked on a deal to re-sign with them that would have paid him $5.3 million over two years.
The saga which unfolded over the last 24 hours or so was rather bizarre, but perhaps Ferrell will now be in line for a bigger role in Sacramento.
